"With Steve's help, I went from a beginner to a confident potter. He's an excellent teacher with a special knack for problem solving. You'll leave feeling encouraged."
- Amy - Driggs, Idaho
"Steve was my first ever pottery teacher, and our class time was always fun and lighthearted—it quickly became the highlight of my week.
He has a great way of teaching the fundamentals while still giving students the space to experiment, make mistakes, and learn through their own hands-on experience."
- Maya, Driggs Idaho
"After five years of struggling to center, Steve finally unlocked it for me. He was able to watch my hands with a teacher's eye and call out exactly what I needed in the moment, then suddenly it all just clicked.
He makes the whole experience so fun, and I walked out of that class with pieces I was proud of."
- Zanni, Driggs Idaho
"I’d been struggling to efficiently pull larger amounts of clay, especially with taller forms. Steve asked about my process and demonstrated how to move more clay with fewer pulls while keeping the walls strong. He also encouraged me to workshop throwing the same form repeatedly and rapidly, trying to loosen up my technique and push my boundaries.
He’s super talented and always has great tips that have helped me grow my pottery skills!"
- Emily, Driggs Idaho
"Steve not only loves all things clay, but he also loves a good clay mystery. Ever wonder how you are causing the clay to do the opposite of your desires? Not sure of how to achieve your brilliant concept?
Steve's magical power is supporting ceramic students to gain skills and to improve their techniques. He's the most joyfully relaxed and knowledgeable teacher I've ever had!"
- Jamie, Driggs Idaho
"In Steve’s advanced wheel class, I learned fundamental skills enabling me to throw larger and more cohesive pieces. I also learned numerous tips and tricks that upgraded the way I make lids and add fluting to larger plates.
Without Steve, my pottery would look like a 4th grader’s art project."
- William, Driggs Idaho
